Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.

Class	Grade	Dressing	Avg wt	$/cwt	$/head	Head
Bulls	—	High	1,430	126.07	1,803	5thin
Cows	Breaker 75-80%	High	1,598	105.36	1,684	6thin

Steers	Select and Choice	Average	1,110	140.00	1,554	1thin

Replacement cattle Per head

By class, stage and age

Bred stock and pairs are reported per head, not per hundredweight — these prices are never mixed with the $/cwt figures above.
